You really should use <b>SFTP</b>, as opposed to FTP (it’s A LOT more secure). I’m able to overwrite files via SFTP w/<a href=“https://filezilla-project.org/”>FileZilla</a> w/no problem. <br> <br>If you want to stick with your current set-up, check out <b>lines 29-30</b> of the config file you shared. What user are you using when you log into your droplet?
my FTP : FireFTP, a Firefox’s Addons. @Pablo : But i don’t think FTP Client is the reason
What FTP client are you using?
Thank you for your reply. Infact, i can upload a new file ( with a big file, it will return 451 error ), delete or something like that : upload a new file and then overwrite that one. i mean i can not overwrite a file if that one didn’t uploaded by ftp. <br>Now i have to download a file to local, change it, remove his clone on server then upload. <br>“Chown - R user:user file” was used. <br>“Chmod -R 777 file” was used.
1.) Make sure you’re using SFTP and <b>not</b> FTP; and <br> <br>2.) Make sure the user that you log in as has <code>write</code> privileges on the folder you’re trying to upload to.
